The force of an object is a product of that object's acceleration and mass. 

F = ma. 

‘F’ represents force; ‘m’ represents mass; and the variable ‘a’ represents acceleration. 

A fighter's fist or a boxer's glove when it reaches a punching bag will have a force dependent on how fast the fist or glove is speeding up and the mass of the fist or glove and arm. The unit of force is typically the Newton (after English physicist Sir Isaac Newton), which is one kilogram meter per second squared.

All the science behind force can be pretty heady and complicated stuff. Cobra simply measures Big Boa’s punching power in the dollars spent replacing obliterated gym equipment.

Paul Panfalone is a Cleveland, OH based artist and toy photographer. He spent his childhood dreaming up stories using action figures in the backyard of his home in East Aurora, NY, appropriately nicknamed “Toytown”. Now as an adult (sort of), he imagines new worlds with those same figures and lives their adventures through the lens of his camera, much like he did back home, over thirty years ago.
